GREEN CURRY WITH SHRIMP
My wife Sarah introduced me to Thai curry before we were married, and now I like to make it for her! Starting with store-bought Thai green curry paste-which contains a blend of lemongrass, ginger or galangal, herbs and aromatics-makes it quick enough for even a weeknight meal.

Steps:
- Add 2 tablespoons oil to a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and par-cook by searing each side for about 1 minute, making sure to not crowd the skillet. Remove the shrimp to a plate and set aside. Return the skillet to the heat and add the remaining 2 tablespoons peanut oil along with the onions, jalapenos and a pinch of salt and cook until they start to brown, 5 to 6 minutes.
- Add the green curry paste and stir to combine; cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the chicken stock to deglaze the skillet, stirring. Add the coconut milk, fish sauce and sugar and mix well. Bring to a simmer and continue to cook until it thickens, about 10 minutes.
- Add the shrimp to the curry and cook until cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes. Ladle the curry into a serving bowl and garnish with the basil, mint and peanuts. Serve with steamed rice-a perfect combination.
SHRIMP WITH BANANA CURRY AND STEAMED COCONUT RICE
Steps:
- In a saucepan, add peanut oil and heat. When the oil is hot, add the shrimp and saute quickly, just until they start to turn pink, but are not cooked through. Remove the shrimp from the pan to a plate.
- Add the garlic, ginger, green onion, lemongrass, apple, galangal, and bananas to the same pan and saute until soft with no color, about 4 minutes. Add cumin and curry powder and saute for 1 minute. Add the lemon, lime, and orange juice along with the tamarind paste, coconut milk, and cilantro. Bring to a boil and simmer for 20 minutes.
- Strain the sauce and return to the heat. Add the Thai basil and kaffir lime leaves.
- Place the shrimp in the sauce and cook until just heated through. Place some rice on each plate. Top the rice with 3 shrimp and surround with the sauce.
- Rinse the rice 2 or 3 times and drain well. Set up a bamboo steamer on the stove. Place the rice in a metal bowl and fill with boiling water until the water is 1/2 inch above the rice. Place the bowl in the steamer and steam until tender, about 20 minutes.
- Remove the cooked rice from the steamer and cool slightly. To the slightly cooled rice, add the butter, orange zest, cumin, and coconut. Stir until well mixed and add the saffron. Before serving, stir in the cilantro.

This dish's sauce is heavenly, rich in colour, texture and flavour while also packing a touch of heat from a Scotch bonnet pepper.

CURRY SHRIMP
I created this Indian-style shrimp when we were entertaining some friends, one of our favorite things to do. It works on the stovetop or the grill. -Shana Conradt, Appleton, Wisconsin
